So stepping back, you look at the prison system, you say, what's the purpose?

Is it to punish?

Is it to warehouse?

Is it to rehabilitate?

And I do think that we're a country that believes in second chances.

I saw firsthand when my father was a client of the system, how inefficient it was and how much better it could be.

And when my father got out, we didn't run from that experience.

He started hiring people from Rikers Island and different prisons into the company, into a second chance program, which we're very, very proud of doing.

And what we saw through our micro experience was that

If you give people mentorship, if you give them job training, a lot of people leave, they have addiction issues, and they can't find housing.

And so people leave prison with a criminal record, and they're less likely to go back and reintegrate in society without help.

from different institutions that can help them do that.

So we modeled the reforms off of what they did in Texas and Georgia and other states where they basically put a lot of job training, alcohol, and addiction treatment programs in the prisons as a way to incentivize the prisoners to work on themselves while they're there in order to allow them to reenter society.

It's turned out to be very successful so far.

They just had a report that showed that the general population

It's at a 47% recidivism rate, meaning that people who leave federal prison, half of them go back.

And people who have now taken this program, only 12% of them go back.

So number one, you're making communities safer because if people are going to now get a job and enter society, instead of committing future crimes, you're avoiding future crimes.

And number two, you're giving people a second chance at life.

And so that was the first part of it.
